First and foremost - THANK YOU for your commitment to our community and for being/becoming a volunteer with us!

In an effort to reduce paper consumption, we've moved our annual membership paperwork online. There are only a few questions and it should take you only a few minutes to complete. Thank you for taking the time to do this.

Choose Committee Interest
In addition to being a member of the board, there are several board-level committees to join. Please indicate which ones you have an interest in joining. And don't worry, this will just register interest, not a full commitment to serve. We'll discuss time commitments and roles at a later date so click as many as sounds interesting to you.

Please list below any conflicts of interest you may have. These include any known familial, volunteer, or business relationships to other board members, staff, or in relation to entities that are impacted by specific board decisions.

If you have no conflicts at this time please type "N/A" below.
We believe in the inherent worth and dignity of all people. Because of this, the staff and board of United Way of Asheville and Buncombe County commit to:

  • Recognize the many ways inequity, particularly racial inequity, takes form both historically and today;
     
  • Name the structures that uphold injustice and work to eliminate these barriers to inclusion and equity from our own work and in our community;
     
  • Build the relationships needed to do this work and, with humility, join community efforts and invite others to join us; and
     
  • Actively honor, engage and embrace diversity with the core belief that it will strengthen our systems, partnerships, and community.

 
Please place your initials in the box to let us know if we may use your photo(s) in materials about our work and your involvement. 
Please share anything that will help us to help you have a great experience as a board member.
